18th January
inventing the future: Sparqs - triggering innovation
Why what leads to success leads to failure in a different situation

Where should ideas come from?
How do I know if I’m looking in the right place?
Why do employee ideas schemes have such a dismal record?
Do specific ideas have their own specific dangers?
Why is it everyone talks a storm about innovation and yet there is never enough?
How come google.com lists 120 million hits for innovation?
Why are there over 171,000 books on the topic and its still not enough?
Why does the fashion industry see innovation differently from the design industry?
Why do inventors invent and commercialisers commercialise?
How do I get from idea to money?
These questions and many more will be answered.
